the latest news on the week's top stories this is the weekly on r c hello and welcome to the program that we have on t. austerity approach has has swept across the planet dubbed a wake up call for the world against choking financial restrictions that the sun told the global noise demonstrations was focused on europe with just this week received the nobel peace prize news that was received by many with surprise and puzzlement. reports now from the spanish capital. the union and its korean nudists have over six decades contributed to the peace and reconciliation and democracy on human rights in europe but is this the peace they're talking about tear gas fascist flags and massive furious crowds of the most common sites across the award winning continent lately protests like this will echo in thirty five countries across the world over the next several weeks the global hands iow stary to voice only in spain alone hundreds of thousands have been

voicing their anger ever since the government announced more painful budget cuts for next year everything with spending are is now unemployed and this grim story is pretty much the same for portugal and greece is one of the leaders of the protest movement in madrid he says people have just about had enough of the crises and the capitalist system right now in spain transfer private data into public that and these causes huge cuts public spending in health system and it took a shit and it's affecting millions of poor people it's producing a huge accomplishment and it's producing a whole social this composition of the old society with so many going against the system across europe at times clashing violently with the police the decision to award the e.u. with a peace prize has raised many eyebrows this is like giving the prize to

frankenstein for being the best monster created during the past twelve months there's only one contender for the peace prize this year and that's julian assad and the fact that he did not win this prize is will be in a terminal stain on the nobel committee no one has done more to push peace than julian assange should be getting the so war from this committee the fact that they turn to a bunch of machines and technocrats and the a hero is an embarrassment they should go back to making dynamite. this award is even more questionable to some because of the e.u. is rather dubious peacemaking record and that moreover the current financial turmoil is the biggest danger to peace europe has been bombing libya europe has been bombing syria europe isn't bombing afghanistan or iraq yugoslavia a few years ago yes it's because they're trying to say ok guys we're giving you a whole year together europe has been spending money they don't have that's going to have to stop that is going to cause more riots in the streets more social unrest

more governments failing perhaps even countries failing and perhaps even people pulling out of the euro could lead to war again in europe in two thousand and nine barack obama won the same award having been in office for only two weeks that was before he sent more troops to afghanistan and waged war in libya but as the latest nobel peace prize award is debated worldwide protesters in spain seem to care little about the prestige than their own survival calls for independence are heard loud and clear in the country's largest and wealthiest region the lumia a clear indication the continent is losing that unity which the nobel committee has decided to. see reporting from madrid in spain. and investment and finds upon trick young believes they cannot mix time to jail that meeting economies of the e.u. will drive the entire region into a financial slump. it's a terrible it's a damning indictment of everything that's wrong with the european union there's no

leadership there's no organization and everybody is surviving on a wing and a prayer hoping that the tooth fairy or some other miraculous being is going to suddenly see of the euro currency the problem is that once the e.u. gets a dogma well it tends to stick with it i mean somewhat like a dog with a stick really it put it into its might and she could all around the sides it won't let go of it unfortunately what we're nice seeing is the problem is that the northern european politicians led particularly by mrs merkel in germany how decided that they can't ultimately give too much more money because they're not allowed to politically because their voters are against it but at the same time effectively they're in a situation where they're going to demand that i completely floor the remedy is going to be used which is korea's austerity. syria has been turkish civilian flights from entering its airspace and the latest escalation of tension between the countries this comes just days after taking four star and a c. one person to

a plane for allegedly transporting russian weapons to damascus moscow says the cargo contained nothing but harmless and illegal electronics are his arena going to that's not what they pointed their guns at those hungover those put those on the ground then they drove us back to the plane into vehicles. bruised arms in better dignity with an international scandal thrown in on top all in the name of peace at least that's the stance taken by the turkish authorities when they tried to justify forcefully grounding a syrian plane on route from moscow to damascus us. we in turkey only want peace and safety in this region that is our desire but we would never have an incentive to start a war hasn't revealed exactly what was in the cargo of that plane though they do insist it was russian made ammunition and technical equipment something moscow the mentally denies. and there were certainly no armaments on this plane and they

simply could not have been any the aircraft was carrying a cargo that was being shipped from a legitimate russian supplier to a legitimate customer in a legitimate way there was a cargo of electrical supplies for radar stations this is dual purpose equipment but it is not barred by any international conventions surely neither do turkish officials say where they received the tipoff about the supposed weapons onboard sound though have their suspicions this is washington telling prime minister. who says he's so independent to go in and go for it only use the f. sixteen s for all its peace mongering talk and righteous outrage over russia's supposed unwillingness to help out in peace efforts and karrar peers to be surprisingly open when it comes to supporting one side in the syrian conflict the rebel. fighter's. allowing the.

lebanese journalist do you know for was described what she believed to be an arms delivery on the border between turkey and syria. the scene was surreal. a dark plane filled with all of trees armed men and dim flashing lights from trucks packed with weapons each syrian group takes its share in leaves i was asked not to film but the immensity of the scene the journalist you know was interrogated for days by turkish officials before being released when she was back in lebanon should realize the incriminating pictures she'd filmed on the turkish syrian border had been wiped while she was in custody some believe turkish school still ety towards president assad has little to do with the situation in syria and everything to do with iran's ambitions i was devilish in this country as a major political player turkey is preparing itself for its one hundredth anniversary and twenty twenty three it was the whole campaign of a very ambitious platform of how turkey is being sent for alliance is going to

position itself as a global power conquer rise establishing itself as a regional boss threatening awful lot worse with syria and openly violating iraqi sovereignty by bombing kurdish bases not exactly what bombs but all feats of diplomacy so in turkish officials to speak of peace and stability in the region their words are drowned out by the sound of an exchange of fire with their neighbors in tel aviv r.t. . the pentagon confirmed this week that u.s. troops have been sent to jordan which also neighbors conflict toward syria around one hundred fifty american officers and are stationed near the rest of the border there some u.s. lawmakers say they deployment was ordered by the white house without notifying congress which violates american law washington claims it's seeking to bolster jordan's military capability. ok as the conflict in syria spills over but political commentator well things washington's just trying to intimidate. jordan has long been a bit of color satellite the us is not actually an ally it's

a province of the us and so why is the us putting these troops out first of all to imply that some of syria is threatening jordan which of course is not true syria's got their hands full with the us inspired rebels who were trained by the way in turkey had a us air force base for the past several years before this all started so this is just a way to gin up the tension to bring on more trouble i know i think it's true the u.s. will not use its troops to invade syria but will they try a libyan strategy of simply bombing people endlessly from the. very possible. and you can find the full timeline of the ongoing conflict in syria on our web site l.t. dot com expert opinions extensive analysis on the latest news old we're talking about . and also about a lost or a as you asked a space shuttle endeavor makes its final journey to the kind of formula science center and we have the pictures on my. the race for our shows

regions on millions of people across the nation are casting ballots for candidates running for posts ranging from regional heads to municipal officials and for the first time in eight years voters are also choosing governors themselves medina cautionary explains this day russian voters are judging for themselves who takes charge of their regions no more than twenty two millions of russians are expected to arrive at the polling stations and choose from an unprecedented number of candidates what is so interesting about those days is that it was introduced of following last december's ways of government protests the biggest in russia's recent history people during the protests were demanding changes to the current election system. also wanted to bring back direct regional elections even to see more representative song the opposition in parliament at the time than president need to be made of scrap the old system regional officials hand-picked by the

government and also made it easier for a new political parties to emerge giving a more compassionate of complection to the local elections just as the introduction of elections for regional governors is now being implemented gradually and this is a very important step in the creation of a civil society institutions it's giving more responsibility to the voters and also increase the level of professionalism if you look to the fisheries as i said before the single voting day takes place for the first time in the last eight years and gives russians an opportunity to choose for themselves who they believe is worth the governing. council to come this hour turning a child into a global front for sariah how to have a name broker denies the world why is it making some question the real go under the phenomena. and also the stronghold of the libyan opposition remains cut off from

vital supplies after a series of violent clashes were beyond forces the details are just ahead. it always amazes me the lengths that people go to for things that are pointless people camped out for a week waiting for a new i phone that will be archaic by next year when the next one comes out every black friday many thankfully not all americans celebrate this holiest of shopping days by waiting outside of a wal-mart in the early morning to fight over trendy plastic gifts for their children that they're too young to appreciate hey even i'm willing to sometimes wake up early in the morning to drive downtown and pay twenty five bucks for parking to watch a football game under occasions but just imagine a world where we actually were willing to wake up early and stand

a big crowd for something say more important than some stupid gizmo or the sake of our favorite sports team just imagine iraq and that world would be here maybe standing around some protester collecting signatures won't do anything we can't be naive enough to think that big corporations will bow to ten people with signs point spending days worshiping at the altar of the i phone it's certainly won't improve your country but that's just my opinion. today violence is once again. these are the world. showing corporations rule.

on. this is coming to live from moscow welcome back a member of the jailed russian punk band pussy riot was freed on appeal this week although her two colleagues failed to get their sentences of a tyrant and old as the trio one hundred two yet times were none to protest on to russia's main orthodox cathedral his point of boycott reports now on the way the band members have been able to cash in on the hype that surrounds the case. a

media frenzy one that breaks out with any pussy riot court hearing the same old faces as supporters and critics gathered for the herring after emerging from her successful appeal everyone wanted a piece of the one band member released on probation but you are somewhat save it remain tight lipped even when you lawyers to do the talking. about this i am very happy that i managed to help a person but i just did my job. last week the now freed band member fired her original legal team her new defense change strategy arguing in court that their client didn't take part in the now notorious punk prayer in more main orthodox cathedral she was in fact chewed out by gods before she got the chance to join her band mates and their so-called protest start that argument was accepted by the

court some trial observers believe that the strategy of the of original post the right defense team wasn't to reduce the women's sentence says but rather to expose flaws in russia's judicial system for all the world to see by switching to lawyers that focused on her personal case some might say that she walked out of court for a while her fellow band members went back to jail so. i think she decided to get some real lawyers the won't be fighting in order to humiliate russia in the face of the worst but to actually free her one major russian concert organizers says they've been flooded with calls from foreign promoters offering to organize a pussy riot world tour that could earn up to six hundred million euros western and russian celebrities have called for the women's release amnesty international considers them prisoners of conscience free pussy riot t. shirts are all the rage. that's the way you attract attention. they always

looked at the. famous pop stars around the world look at the way we're dollars dressed look at dell look at all the others. we can do as well as that or we could do something different and they hated the idea of going into the cathedral and seeing the blossom of songs because that. would in fact be something i reduce with the media circus in full swing and the constant requests pouring in brand pussy riot isn't set to go away any time soon polly boyko r t moscow and investigative journalist tony gosling says the resulting popularity on the vandalism in the wake of the band's trial raises a big question over who's really benefited on the sentence. let's not forget what's else is going on around the world around this case because you have got loads of problems with the in a way you know part of the punishment is to stop these people cashing in on the free publish to the you know this published there's been two prizes awarded to

these people one from the lennon oh no fun which is a prize for peace which i find incredible since this has been such a divisive case the other is the luther prize which has been awarded boy the city of wittenberg which is where protestantism started and what's happened is the city has awarded the prize for the people of the city and they are protesting against that saying you know we don't actually endorse this sacrilege i think there's something really a bit sad about a band organization that defines itself by the opposition to the church and it's quite clear through this court case that's what this is about we've even had the disaggregation of orthodox crosses of course eastern europe in different parts of eastern europe in support of pussy riot so this is actually about i think an attack on the cathedral an attack on the church and let's now take a brief look at some of the day's world news is that most fighters in mali have threatened to open the doors of hell for french citizens in there if paris by the

pushes for armed intervention security council has unanimously voted to accept a french drafted resolution calling for a military mission to liberate mali is rebel held and is that as a control to that of the country since april after the government was overthrown in a military coup the army two are claiming the authorities were unfit to counter the rebellion in the north. at least two militants have been killed and one injured in an israeli air strike in northern gaza the israeli military reportedly carried out four strikes to target sites of terrorist activity however the other three attacks did not result in casualties the strikes were launched in response to rocket fired from gaza into southern israel on friday the dead were reportedly members of which are hardest salafist groups blamed for a sea. as a violent attacks on israel. mauritania military patrol has opened fire on its own president mohammed abdul aziz was returning to the capital after a regional trip when his convoy was hit by bullets authorities say the soldiers did

not recognize the president's vehicles as they passed by the shots injured the leader in the arm and since been announced he'll be flown abroad for treatment. libyan armed forces continue to surround the opposition stronghold of bani walid the conflict has already claimed at least ten lives after a series of armed confrontations on the eastern outskirts of the city earlier this week residents have been left without access to bases and basic necessities and are calling for international rescue while at least siege was partially lifted on wednesday allowing the red cross to access the city for the first time since the standoff began leaving are currently ruled by the national journal congress remains unstable ever since last year's uprising resulted in the ousting and death of moammar gadhafi and journalist james corbett believes the conflict exposes the reality of a post gadhafi leave. it just goes to show that the deeply divided lines in the country right now tribally ethnically in terms of geography it's a it's

a deeply divided country and there are a number of different problems that are playing itself out politically in libya right now and this just goes to show once again that that not only is libya ungoverned to a large extent at the moment but it is perhaps given its current political state ungovernable in this particular instance we have the prime minister being voted out in a vote of no confidence because he was unable to form a cabinet and basically this is due to both the pressures from the people themselves there was a popular protest movement basically saying that each individual city was complaining they were under represented in this proposed cabinet and you have the political dealings with the major parties behind the scenes including an offshoot of the muslim brotherhood which is trying to get into a greater position of power in the country so there's a lot of power politics playing out and there's no easy solution on the horizon for the people in libya really the country is descending into a type of chaos that is really the predictable result of this type of regime change through violence that we've seen time and again throughout the past decade from

afghanistan to iraq to libya and potentially now toward syria. coming out shortly we'll meet some of russia's a stiff pirating elder citizens his latest poll. looters that takes your breath away a few tourists travel to these paul it's no prepackaged comfort but the joy of the wild these guaranteed guineas a zoology professor he works in the u.s. and travels to these remote areas in russia every summer as he says he confines untouched landscapes like this anywhere else in the world. we're going off the list below sea line if i go wrong the wrong and surprise you will go straight to the water and so we did. one animal whose par you definitely wouldn't want to shake here is the brown bear and you can literally spot

agrees the here by every small river. where the bears are fishing but they have a very concise well to be able to see that we have to keep an eye a wind direction and the distance between them and us up told i could be dangerous so we're going just a shell but the brick wall. and quietly went but the wind was not on our side and the bear got away another local resident who hates his piece being disturbed here is this callous sea eagle it has a wingspan of two and a half meters it ness only here in russia far east because of the bundles of salmon and seagulls which feed the giant bird in his studies if gainey focuses on birds so he took me to one of his favorite places here the island it has the biggest colony of seagulls in the region. and the climb back up was tough but the prize was worth

it. maybe for the wildlife here the lack of physical for the better but when you stand on top of like this you just can't help wanting to share the beauty of. the. bridge stream quality. favorites.
